My trainer theme
Aswell as having a selective of 11 themes I could choose from I specifically chose them because either there my hobbies or I find it fascinating that’s why I picked 11. Overall I decided to chose trainers because there’s soo much I can write about and I admire trainers, who doesn’t?
I felt that this was the best one to choose because, I have a great imagination to edit trainers in different ways, using software’s of Photoshop and After effects. The reason of these software I chose because I’ve perceive it as a excellent editing software with countless of tools to use. Also the outcome of other people’s produced work using these software’s is outstanding therefore, I’ll be using this.
I see hundreds of trainers everyday walking on the street, many varieties of Brands and colours, meaning I will have lots of ideas to be creative. What I will do to start my project is to take photographs of trainers in a sports shop then edit them. Though to experiment with the tool to see which suits trainers the best. After i completed this I will be adding them to my final project commercial.
I have chosen this theme as though I admire trainers I want to know more knowledge about it so it would be interesting finding the history behind the trainer industry about: who invented it, how it evolved from them to today, the names of the person who invented the trainers Brands which are well-known today, the names trainers where called. Also i will be researching how trainers were made as its fascinating to know pieces of material put together can produce a high quality shoe.
I will be researching the well known trainers such as: Nike, Adidas, Converse especially because there the most iconic trainers in the world. Just seeing the logo knowing that its that specific brand.
What i like about trainers is a wide variety to buy, it comes in all forms shapes and colours and materials. There very comfortable to walk in, I can walk on anything or anywhere with trainers on. easy to put on.It makes me feel good, especially in a new pair of trainers.
I love vibrant and flashy trainers as there very intriguing to me catches my attention.at the, the visual stimuli: shapes, colour combinations,patterns. It is a unique decision when choosing a new pair of trainers. In my opinion, the process is similar to buying a car. The British luxurious Rolls Royce with a spacious interior with the finest intricate wood built in the car, or a modern Bentley with a convertible roof, plumped seat cushions; painted glossy white. If I searching online for trainers and I see a pair I admire I would visualise my self in sneakers, imagine the way these would look with a new outfit. visualise how these move as you move, how the front of the soles cast a shadow on the ground when I stroll through a step and the lighting of sun hits them just right.
The first thing I put on a new pair is i walk in the to test in i feel comfortable in them, because its more important to how they feel than how they look. If they feel good then i go to the mirror, if i’m seduced by its appearance, then i buy them. If your a trainer lover you would get how i feel.
What I like about trainers is there are trainers to wear for every type of activity such as: for basketball a trainer that is suitable are Jordan’s, as there bulkier,heavy, and have a steady grip. For the gym a suitable trainer would be a flexible material at the top, straps to keep the ankle stable, bouncy light sole being New Balance, Adidas, Nike. For walking would be highly cushioned for the sole of the feet, inflexible and heavy a slightly under cut heel like Nike, New Balance or even a sock trainer. For running trainers should be a light weight sole, flexible material on the top, as nearly every Brand has created a running shoe. For a trainer for going out would be Air forces as they have that simple, slick, slim neat look with various of colours which will go with anything or mostly white trainers.
There are many reasons people love trainers. One of them being trainers being less exclusive to popularity or limited edition. Who doesn’t like having a pair of trainers that not many people own or not have because its custom made. It makes them feel superior being the one and only having the pair. The more rare a trainers is, the higher the chances will be expensive.
The exotic Air Max 97 Racer Pink is a great example of that, on Stock the website that sells limited trainers for a high price BID of £200 and up if lucky some win on a BID of £150. I don’t hear many saying that they love the colour combination of: apricot orange, violet purple, peachy pink, but it suits this typical shoe, so people a willing to be ruthless and pay high prices to get it.
Some shoes change the trainer industry forever, trainers that has a lot of historical significance, like the Jordan 1 Retro Chicago comes to my mind automatically. So some people feel the need have a certain iconic trainer like this with history behind it, in their collection.
There is nothing more comfortable than walking in the Nike Air Vapour Max. People want to walk far freely without worrying about their feet throbbing against the material. The feeling is like walking on air but has a bounce to it because if the bubbles of the sole. Its very interesting and unique that’s why these are one of my favourite trainer.
Have you ever bought a pair of trainers just because its Turquoise? Me too! Just because its unique and who doesn’t like to stand out from the crowd?
Trainer lovers stay loyal to buying one brand and no other. Its true some people are like that.
